Norse gods were created by a culture that lived off of war. I'd say they win.

Most badass? Probably Norse. The entire mythology was centered around war. However, I prefer Greek mythology and its gods.

Definitely the Greeks. They're just like humans, all the emotion, romance, drama and conflict, with supreme power mixed in.

I'll have to say Zeus, that guy tapped like 8 mortal chicks and had kids with them, i mean come on. My patron is a freaking pimp. And my Aphrodite....Mmmmmmmm. She No mans pinup girl, but she'll party like its 199(AD).

But i have huge respect for the Norse Deitys, and its a culture basd of war, like Shikism. I mean in 700 AD teh Norse started wearing Hammer necklaces around their neck to compete with the Cross necklace. A freaking HAMMER!!!! Does that not scream awesome? but that only gets them second place, sadly i'm a little biased.

Speaking of which, theres a bunch of reconstruction groups poping up for Celtic, Norse (or just germanic if you will) Hellenist (greek) and Kemetic (Egyptian), and last but not least Roman (if i wern't an hellenist i'd be Roman). Heres the FAQ for the Kemetic http://www.ecauldron.net/reconegyptfaq.php

I'd say it is a tie between Norse and Mesopotamian. The Norse by definition are badass... but Marduk, Gilgamesh, Inanna and others from the Mesopotamian tradition are incredibly badass and often overlooked.

Hinduism by far.

Hanuman created an entire bridge by shifting an entire mountain with his hands! Note that he wasn't necessarily divine, just particularly loyal to Krishna.

Also, Kali. Nuff said.

Let's not forget the Mesopotamian creation myth...

Tiamat, one of the primal beings, is killed and dismembered by Marduk (one of her sons) to form the Earth from her corpse.
